Google-ism

I just read an interesting article about Google. Seems that google puts some serious cookies on your PC which expire sometime in 2030. Normal Cookies have a lifespan of a few days or weeks. Although Google is big in the ad-business it is far from a “nasty” company (like lets say the Bayer Pharmacy group which invented heroin and morphium) - and anyway there isn’t any real alternative to Google.

So in the end, read the linked article and make your own decision if you will use Google freely in the future - I for sure will, because if any company got some data from me, I would have it to be Google.
